[ Mikleo is glad that the other teen isn't hurt at all and he moves to lean on the counter, mostly to see what Rin is cooking. ]
Ah, yes. I can move stealthily when I need to. [ Even make himself invisible to people who can usually see him. ] Not that I intended to in this case. Had I known someone was in here, I would have come by to introduce myself first.
[ This time it's his turn to shake his head and smiles a little. ]
Not the cafe, no. I was more interested in seeing what other people's worlds were like. Many of them seem pretty different from my own. [ A brief pause. ] Is this an inn in your world? I saw many rooms with beds upstairs and even a bathing area.
[He's not going to fault Mikleo for not knowing the place wasn't completely empty. It looked like that back home, too. It had been abandoned completely before Rin and Yukio took up residence.]
No, actually. It's a school dorm. Didya see the big buildin' in the distance? That's True Cross Academy. My brother and I went there.
[She’s not sure if that’s meant as a compliment or not but she’ll tuck that away and bring it back up when he least expects it.]
Just medicine and some shampoo.
[Horrible shampoo made with nano machines that had been programmed to remember Tim’s hairstyle that is. Because nothing says bonding like everyone having hair that spiked straight up.]
[ Mikleo is seriously going to start acting as if he's visible to everyone from now on, talk to people rather than loom like a silent ghost or mumbling to himself.
Some parts of the building had looked lived in but for the most part, it seemed abandoned. Though most of these appear to be pieces of people's homes. When Rin mentions the big building, his eyes widen. ]
That is the largest school I've ever seen. You actually go to school there?
[Rin had to laugh at that a little. He'd had a similar reaction when he first started attending. The sheer size and scope of the academy had been absolutely mind blowing to someone who had only ever been to smaller, simpler public schools.]
Yeah, it's a private academy so it's all a buncha rich kids and super smarts that got in on scholarships. I only got in cause I'm related to the headmaster.
[ There is no school in Mikleo's village, he learned nearly everything he knows from the older seraphim. In the larger cities, they hadn't really stopped to look at schools.
Rin's words cause him to shake his head. ] We may have only just met but you don't seem like the sort of guy who would try to get by simply relying on your relationship to the headmaster. I'm sure you work hard to keep up with your classmates.
L-look the first time you actually met me you threw a pillow at my head and yelled at me until you saw I was upset! You tease everyone even your best friend! You even deny bein' tsun which is what all tsunderes do!
